Public Art Fund Brings a Hot Dog Bus to DUMBO!

We can’t wait for Public Art Fund’s next ~ Installation. Erwin Wurm: Hot Dog Bus will pull into Brooklyn Bridge Park on June 9th!

From the image displayed by Public Arts Fund, we can expect a modified, vintage Volkswagen Microbus transformed into a work of food art, serving free hot dogs to visitors all summer.

One of this city’s “most iconic street foods” served from the “bright yellow, overstuffed food truck,” is meant to encourage audiences to reconsider the relationship between capitalism and consumption in today’s culture ~ “while the act of eating, according to Wurm, can be considered an additive sculptural process in its own right.” Are you listening, Joey & Miki?

Curated by Public Art Fund Associate Curator, Daniel S. Palmer, Erwin Wurm: Hot Dog Bus is truly an interactive installation, that will be on view on weekends, along Brooklyn Bridge Park’s 1.3 miles of waterfront. This is the first in a series of three summer exhibitions presented by Public Art Fund, with Tauba Auerback: Flow Separation opening on July 1st and B. Wurtz: Kitchen Trees opening August 7.
